This record is only as complete as the public makes it

No one has catalogued Sarah McBride's campaign promises yet — and an empty page holds no one accountable. StumpWatch is built by volunteers, one sourced promise at a time. Be the first to add this official's promises: paste a campaign pledge or public statement with a link to where it was said, and we'll start tracking whether it's kept. Every entry is sourced, neutral, and open to correction.

Inferred legislative agendas

Sarah McBride's record includes bills related to technology, foreign affairs, and labor rights, as evidenced by her sponsorship of bills like the Biotechnology for All High School Students Act and the Global Respect Act. Her committee memberships include science, technology, and international relations. Focus areas (from the record): technology · foreign affairs · labor rights · education · science Alignment with declared positions: Insufficient evidence. There are no declared positions or tracked promises on file to compare against her legislative activity, making it impossible to assess alignment. What this can't tell you: The record does not reveal any declared positions or promises that could provide context for her legislative focus; There is no information on the effectiveness of her sponsored bills or her influence within committees; The record does not indicate her engagement with constituents or how her campaign finance sources may impact her legislative priorities. Confidence: moderate (based on the volume of verified record on file).

Inferred, not stated. Sarah McBride has not necessarily stated these as goals. This is an AI-generated, nonpartisan reading of the patterns in their verified record — sponsored legislation, committee work, roll-call votes, and campaign-finance composition — and how those patterns compare to any declared positions and tracked promises. It describes what the record emphasizes, never imputes motive, and is run through an adversarial review pass that scrubs bias, loaded language, and any claim the evidence doesn’t support. It is not a quote, a claim they made, or a rating; every underlying item is sourced in the verified record below; and it never affects the Integrity Score.

Stated positions

No stated positions are on record for this official yet. A stated position is what the official says they believe on an issue — a sourced claim, separate from any assessment of what they did. Know one? Add it with a link to where it was said.

Disclosure
No undisclosed priorities on record

Disclosure

A separate measure from the promise scorecard above. It tracks confirmed cases where this official has acted on or championed an issue that already existed when they ran, but which they did not disclose as a priority in their campaign. Each case meets a high evidence bar — three independent sources — and the score is shown alongside the Integrity Score, never merged into it. How this is measured.

No undisclosed priorities on record. This is not a clean-audit claim — it means none have been confirmed for this official.
